An access log is a text file containing a full report on all the files accessed by your site visitors. All the files that were requested in one way or another will be included, so if you have a PHP script application and a visitor opens only the home page, for instance, you might find numerous files in the log. It is because there are resources on the home page that are embedded - parts of other pages, pics, etcetera. All these files shall be listed inside the access log, so that you can get a full picture of the way your site functions. The data is in plain text format, so the logs are often called "raw data" as well. An access log contains the name of each and every requested file, the path to it, the date it was accessed, in addition to the user’s IP address, Internet browser and Operating System. More information, like the referrer Internet site, is typically provided as well. A log file can be processed by various desktop apps for statistical purposes as an addition to the web statistics generated by your website hosting server.

Access Log Manager in Hosting

If you choose one of our hosting packages, you will get thorough access logs for all your sites. Once you sign in to your Hepsia CP, you can check out the Access/Error Logs section where you will see a full list of the domain names and subdomains which you have added or created within the hosting account. You will simply have to click on the On button, which is found on the right-hand side of every hostname and our cloud platform will start generating logs at once. To disable this function, you will have to follow the exact same steps and click on the Off button. The domains and subdomains could be managed individually and whenever you want. You will find a download link in the Logs section of the CP for every log created by our system, so you're able to save the file to your laptop or computer and view it or use it via some log processing software.

Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our advanced hosting platform will generate access logs for every single Internet site hosted inside a semi-dedicated server account, provided that this feature is permitted. All domain names and subdomains that you have shall be listed in the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia CP, which we offer with all of the accounts, so if you'd like our system to start producing logs for each of them, you should just click on the little button on the right side of the respective domain/subdomain and change the default Off option to On. You'll be able to disable this feature at any time by following exactly the same steps. You can find a Download link for each log in the exact same section of the Control Panel, so you can save the content gathered by our system in .txt format with no more than a mouse click. An existing log file could be downloaded even after the function has been disabled, so you will still be able to check out the data that's already been generated.
